The job market in Toronto is the biggest in the country and obviously there are plenty of jobs available now, just that we need to work hard to find them. There are plenty of routes to your first job, some of which are already posted in this blog. I will keep posting information here :).

1. 70% of immigrants to Canada DO NOT have relatives here. They had to start on their own. We did too.
2. Did someone promise you that you will automatically get a very good job with a very good pay as soon as you arrive here and that noone is struggling in Canada for jobs? Yes, getting a job in your field with a decent pay within months is not something impossible. But that requires preperation and the determination to do that. You have to do what it takes and be prepared to give your 100% to it. Yes, we see some people here who struggle much more than other immigrants, just because they are ignorant of the newcomer support services, networking benefits etc., that are available here. Yes, life as an immigrant is difficult in a new country for the first few months and we have all gone through it. Believe me there are so many streams of support than we expected and we are happy we made this choice. Remember there is something called ‘Proof of funds’ with our application? That money will help us sustain until we get a job. Most likely we will get into a survival job at first as they are relatively easier to get into. We should target to get a job of our choice asap from there and life goes on!

I am not pushing you to make a decision here. People here struggle to live not because they cannot get a job, but because they are either not doing their job search in the right way or they do not know how to seek help.
